Educating for Wisdom and Compassion: Creating Conditions for Timeless Learning
See More
Abstract/Notes: Blending philosophy, research, and three decades of practice, John P. Miller's engaging discussion of timeless learning reminds us that wisdom as an outcome of education is more than skills mastery and high-stakes assessments. Among the benefits to students discussed here are wholeness; a sense of purpose; improved attention, alertness, perception, and memory; and reduced stress and anxiety achieved through meditation, contemplation, and reflection.

Abstract/Notes: This chapter describes the development and implementation of a programme providing higher and continuing education for imprisoned women in Hawai‘i. The purpose of the chapter is to show how the programme, which was based on principles of restorative justice and peace education, connects to and illustrates peace psychology. The programme consists of educational and restorative components. The education component provides women with opportunities to increase self-efficacy and personal agency. The project design motivates inner and relational peace by applying Montessori’s peace education and cooperative learning theories. The restorative re-entry planning process increases respect, empathy, and redemption. The value of respect advanced by Montessori and restorative justice is embedded in the project. Through cooperative learning and restorative re-entry planning practices, the women build supportive and peaceful relationships both internally and relationally to help decrease the structural violence that they have experienced. This chapter describes research supporting education for incarcerated women to address structural violence. The chapter includes an explanation of concepts and applications of cooperative learning and restorative re-entry planning circles and discusses their effectiveness in generating inner and relational peace. This chapter describes how education can increase incarcerated women’s personal agency, self-efficacy, and confidence, creating inner and relational peace, leading to successful re-entry and decreased domestic violence. The program addresses the connection between lack of personal agency and domestic violence, problems shared by many women, incarcerated and otherwise, throughout the world. The programme, created and conducted in Hawai‘i, could be replicated by other correctional institutions.

Abstract/Notes: Parent-teacher partnership could dramatically improve educational outcomes for students (Bikmaz & Guler, 2003; Epstein, 2001). However, most teachers and parents lack knowledge and resources for creating this relationship (Christenson, 2004; Epstein, 2001; Henderson & Mapp, 2002). The interactive handbook is a tool for Montessori elementary educators and parents that addresses the common barriers to connection and develops a partnership to provide a continuation of lessons and values from the classroom to the home. The implementation is focused on the Montessori elementary context as it correlates to the "cosmic education" philosophy. Current parents and teachers in the public and private sector of Montessori elementary education evaluated the handbook, and their feedback was incorporated to be the most relevant and effective tool possible.

Abstract/Notes: The Montessori method is well-known for its child-centered and hands-on learning approach for early literacy development. This study is the first to apply the Montessori method in robot-assisted language learning (RALL). We developed an alphabet learning system that consists of a Moveable alphabet, a tablet, and a social robot. We conducted a between-subjects experiment with 89 Kazakh children aged 6–11 that learned the Kazakh Latin alphabet either with a Montessori-human (MH) or a Montessori-robot (MR) teacher. We examined the effects of the learning method on children’s learning gains and emotional outcomes across these two conditions. Our results suggest that in the Montessori learning environment the MH teacher was significantly more effective in providing early literacy support than the MR teacher. The emotional states were mixed between grades, but the children in the MR condition felt happier than those in the MH condition in Grades 1 (ages 6–7) and 4 (ages 10–11). This exploratory study suggests testing the method’s effectiveness in long-term child-robot interactions, with varied learning tasks over time.
